The Argus of Fargo having charged
Rolette county an excessive price fol-
job work with its friend Tillotson on the

The Fourth at Freshwater.

Special Correspondence of the INTER.OcEAN.
The Fourth of July was spent very
pleasantly in this vicinity, reminding
one quite forcibly of cold times in the
east"
The Webster Sunday school took the
lead in getting up a real good celebra-
ton, and hundreds of people will long
remember the occasion. The place
chosen for the celebration was the beau
tiful grove on the south shore of the
west arm CT Sweetwater lake and be-
longing to Mr. Frank Adams who kindly
gave PERMISSION to use it in that way
At m early hour cheerful companies
came pouring in from every direction
until the grove was resonant with the
hum of social conversation, we'll inter-
sperced with loud peals of merry laugh
ter. After assembling at the stand
orations, declarations, dialogues and
singing occupied the time until nearly
two o'clock when everybody in the
grove was invited to a free and bounti-
full feast, spread out temptingly upon a
very long table, from which it Is estima.
ted that pear five hundred people were
eating at the same time. The afternoon
was occupied IN boat riding, swinging
base bali and croquet and especially
in social conversation. Very many
thus for the first time, becoming &C
quainted with their nearest neighbors
and everyone seemed surprised that 81
much social enjoyment could be
crowded into one day so near the door
of our new homes in the west.
July S was the birthday anniversary
lof our efficient Sunday school superin
tendent Mr.. VIM. H. Buck. So abou
twenty-five or thirty of his numerou
friends surprised and captured hin
just at sun set, also taking possession O
the premises where he resides. Mis-
Averill presided at the organ and al
evening of cheerful song was followed
with q good supper and this with ic
cream and lemonade prepared ant
brought over by the ladies of the party
Mr.. Bucks excellent mother who il
spending the summer with him en-
Logged the surprise hughly and chimet
in with the merriment of the occasion

will hold me excused from dwelling at
full length the other Of the weeks topics
The most notable of these is the landlords confer

pressed wistful approval Of the round table con-
ference between them aud their tenants suggested

One of the great features of these times is the
number of deputations of all kinds that are over
here from England viewing the working of the
Coercion act. An immense meeting was held at
the Rotunda on Wednesday to give one of the most
considerable of these an Irish welcome.
